Lyrics for Hope, The Great Betrayal

Infinite darkness engulfs a shadow over time They line up one by one delivering their salted woes The fading memory of light drowns beneath the tide Though the earth turn cold and the oceans lay frozen The betrayer of hope sleeps soundly in vast cathedrals of the sky Mine is the kingdom where sun doth not shine For today marks the day of a new age The age of the unlight Let the stars of the twilight mirror the eyes of the beast Let them look for light but have none but the great black flame therein May forever the day be shrouded in death and sadness. Let them look for light but have none but the great black flame therein for you May forever the day be shrouded in death and sadness. Let them look for light but have none but the great black flame therein alone Remember the day Dreaming of dreams You know it to be true And nothing is done between us Not til the end of time
